AZ Alkmaar Secures Midfielder Kristijan Belić as Key Addition to Their Squad
Dutch football club AZ Alkmaar has successfully completed the signing of midfielder Kristijan Belić from FK Partizan on a lucrative contract that will extend until 2028. The acquisition comes after the departure of two key midfielders, Djordje Mihailovic and Kenzo Goudmijn. With Belić’s arrival, AZ Alkmaar bolsters its midfield options for the upcoming season.
Kristijan Belić, a promising 22-year-old Serbian talent, is reported to have commanded a significant transfer fee, demonstrating AZ Alkmaar’s investment in his potential.
Max Huiberts, the technical director of AZ Alkmaar, expressed his delight with the signing, stressing Belić’s valuable experience despite his young age. Huiberts highlighted Belić’s agility, work rate, ball control, aggressiveness, and willingness to engage in physical battles. The acquisition fills a crucial gap in the squad, and AZ Alkmaar is thrilled to have secured Belić’s services.
This marks AZ Alkmaar’s second signing of the January transfer window, as they recently welcomed Gonçalo Esteves to their ranks. The club is keen on strengthening its squad as they continue their campaign in the Dutch Eredivisie.
